Campus police ‘adjust the way of doing things’ during campus shutdown

The El Camino College Police Department continues to work on campus 24/7 to provide the community with support following the closure of the campus and the statewide stay-at-home order, officials said.

“We’ve been good, lucky,” ECCPD Sgt. Ruben Lopez said. “But we’ve had to adjust the way of doing things.”

Campus police have worked to block off several parking lots on campus in an effort to reduce the number of people who go on campus as there have been several instances where they’ve had to ask those loitering to leave.

However, if a student needs to visit ECC for any reason, Lopez said campus police will work to provide them with the proper access.
